IC&RC International Certificates

As a certified IC&RC member of the NMCBBHP, you are eligible to receive an International Certificate. This international certificate does not replace, but rather enhances the existing credential that you currently hold with NMCCBHP.

Displaying your certificate prominently and using the international acronym on professional materials can help you gain greater professional recognition. It also enhances your reputation in the profession and confirms your proficiency. Finally, an International Certificate for counselors (ICADC) is required by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) for recognition as a SAP.

There are currently four international reciprocal certificates offered through NMCBBHP:

International Certificates can be used by professionals to signify their international, reciprocal status. To be entitled to an International Certificate, professionals must first hold a valid, current, reciprocal-level credential through an IC&RC Member Board. International Certificates are tied directly to a professional’s certification or license with an IC&RC member board. They are not free-standing certificates. Professionals should contact NMCBBHP to determine if their credential entitles them to an International Certificate.

If you hold one of IC&RC's international credentials and want a print copy, download and submit the International Certificate Order Form to IC&RC. International Certificates will be issued to professionals using the same expiration date used by his or her member board for the corresponding credential.

Professionals interested in earning a reciprocal-level certification must do so through NMCBBHP Board. For more information on certification requirements, please contact this board at info@nmcbbhp.org
